He spent the best part of two summers trying to get this move. He's been there for just two seasons. To want to leave, after all the work to get there, would have made it pointless Cold hard truth is there is a world cup coming up and if he realistically wants to be starting those WC games he needs first team club football and new manager or not if you think he is splitting up the Iniesta/Xavi duo you crazy

With Thiago gone, if he's worried about playing time, that shouldn't be an issue. Xavi is nearing the end of his career. Thiago was injured last year yet Fab still didn't get the gametime he will need for a WC starting place. Regardless if he is getting older there is ZERO chance of him and Iniesta being split up any time in the next 3 years the fans would turn on the manager and club just like that

New manager will most likely see a place in his team for him. He'd be an idiot if he didn'tNo doubt warming the bench for Xavi and Iniesta



If/When Barca accept a bit for him it will just show him first hand how much importance they really put on him.

He paid some towards his fee, yes, but still holds Arsenal in his heart. Well, so he says. Ronaldo said we treated him like a slave (PMSL), but he'd probably only return to England to play for United.

He's been in the Spain squad during his time at Barcelona. Even started as a false number 9 in the Euros. He will get games for Spain.

I just really can't see him going. Would of course love to be wrong.
